The company is the first digital banking
platform to surpass this milestone outside of Asia and is honoring
its customers in Brazil, Mexico, and Colombia with a tech-first
campaign
Nubank announced today that it has surpassed 100 million
customers in Brazil, Mexico, and Colombia, making it the first
digital banking platform to reach this milestone outside of Asia.
The achievement comes on the heels of record 2023 financial
results, with over US$1 billion in net profit and over US$8 billion
in revenues, which attest to the solidity, efficiency, and
scalability of Nubank’s business model.
Currently, Nubank serves more than 92 million customers in
Brazil, over 7 million in Mexico, and close to 1 million in
Colombia, with record levels of satisfaction. According to internal
analyses, the company's NPS (Net Promoter Score) is nearly three
times higher than incumbents and other major local fintechs.
True to its mission of "fighting complexity to empower people”,
Nubank is leveraging tech and innovation to drive competition in
the sector, and transform millions of lives through inclusion and
improved financial management. The company’s digital model has
helped its customers save more than 11 billion dollars in banking
fees in 2023 and to spare more than 440 million hours of waiting in
service queues over the past seven years1.
In Brazil, in a twelve month period, Nubank promoted the
financial inclusion of 5.7 million people in the credit card
market2. After breaking the access barrier, research showed that
60% of Brazilian customers improved their financial journey in the
first 24 months, through frequent and responsible use of credit
cards and other financial products3.
"In 2013, we had set ourselves the ambitious goal to reach one
million customers in five years, which seemed almost impossible at
the time. In a decade, we have surpassed 100 million, which is a
testament to the trust our customers place in us and to the power
of a truly customer-centric business model. These 100 million
customers have written their stories together with ours, and we
want to honor them in a special way," explains David Vélez, founder
and CEO of Nubank.
Nubank is launching “You at the center of everything”, a
campaign that leverages technology and innovation to highlight real
customers’ journeys through an activation on the Exosphere – the
exterior of Sphere in Las Vegas and the largest LED screen in the
world.
The Exosphere activation shows 360 degrees of images of Nubank
customers on the exterior of the venue - which is nearly 112 meters
high and more than 157 meters wide. The faces are formed by purple
particles, each of which represents one of Nubank's 100 million
customers. Together, they illustrate that Nubank is composed of all
their individual stories. Nubank customers will be featured from
May 7th to the 14th on the Exosphere, kickstarting additional local
campaigns and customer engagement in Brazil, Mexico, and Colombia.
Nubank’s 100 Million campaign materials are available at
www.nubank.com.br/100M.
“Being customer-centric has been guiding us since the very
beginning. Today, we want our customers to see themselves the way
we see them: at the center of everything. In reaching this
milestone, we want to focus on the real people and individual
stories of empowerment and advance our mission to help improve
people’s lives," emphasizes Cristina Junqueira, co-founder and
Chief Growth Officer of Nubank.
A record journey to 100 million customers
Nubank was born in 2013 in Brazil with the mission to fight
complexity to empower people in their daily lives by reinventing
financial services, using technology to solve problems, and putting
a bank in people's pockets. Betting against a general fintech trend
to begin operations with savings, the company launched a credit
card with no fees, with the goal to tackle the most challenging
financial vertical first: lending. The other key differential is
the 100% cloud-native platform, which allows for scalable growth
with a low cost structure, and powers some of the fastest data
processing capabilities in the industry for product design, credit
and risk models, and personalization.
The company surpassed one million customers in Brazil two years
after launching its first product, three years ahead of forecast
and mostly through organic member-get-member dynamics. The savings
account, launched in 2017, unlocked further growth by enabling a
suite of products: personal loans, SME solutions, investments, and
crypto. Today, the portfolio includes marketplace and insurance,
among others.
Starting in 2019, Nubank began to expand internationally, in
Mexico and Colombia, leveraging the unique combination of
cloud-native technology, customer centricity, efficient business
model, and brand love. The Mexican customer base is growing faster
than Brazil at similar stages for Savings and Credit Card, and is
in its journey to obtain a banking license to keep expanding its
product portfolio into investments, payroll products and higher
credit lines, among others. In Colombia, the company introduced its
savings product earlier in the year, which already has over 500,000
customers signed into the launch list.
